Phi Beta Kappa elects members The University chapter of Phi Beta Kappa, national scholastic society, has announced election of members from the 1970-71 senior class. Previously, Phi Beta Kappa has held elections during the spring term from eligible members of the senior class graduating each June. However, effective with the 1970-71 academic year, by faculty action the University adopted a grading system in which grade point averages are no longer computed. Phi Beta Kappa has based their preliminary identification of candidates on grade point averages. The modification of the grading system made it difficult for the membership committee of Phi Beta Kappa to identify eligible can didates within the time limits previously established. During the summer, candidates were identified and this fall’s selections were made from those candidates. The same problem of timing makes it impossible to select the Senior Twelve this fall. The faculty has appointed an ad hoc faculty-student committee, the Academic Distinctions Policy Committee, to identify procedures for the recognition of academic distinctions. That committee has not reported at this time.
